Christmas Life

Post by Dr. Monstaa » December 23rd, 2011, 10:19 am

New rule with no death that grows a series of 'hooks' in box forms. Periodically, a new box will be formed on the edge that stops when it meets a side of the last box.There isn't much change from pattern to pattern but it does dictate where the gaps are. Called it Christmas Life as it reminded me of something christmas-y but I don't know what....

Rule= B1/S012345678

Example

Code: Select all

x = 3, y = 3, rule = B1/S012345678

it looks like a present and each hook is a stripe.
